Think I've figured out what was wrong. Read about queue-cleaning in the
INTERNALS document that comes with qmail and I believe the problem is that a
big email got stuck at the beginning of the queue while I was shutting down
the system (I didn't leave time for qmail-send to exit properly). I guess
preprocessing on the message never finished. According to INTERNALS, it
should be cleaned up automatically within 36 hours.
